"Let me guess: No one cries when you cut up a bagpipe?"
Bingo!
"Anyone have a handle on when (what year) Saab went over to the closed (vapor recovery) system?"
1971 according to my Haynes manual. The real question I think is do you have evaporative emission controls (= charcoal canister and associated plumbing). As I posted before, if you have the early (non-canister, vented-cap, pre-1971) system, you just need to carve venting grooves in the locking cap gasket, you do not need to source an early style locking cap, which may not exist anyway. . Still trying to get the camera system together to post photos.
